Opiniones de Anypoint Platform

Anypoint platform un programa de desarrollo de sofware muy curioso

Comentarios: Nuestra experiencia general con Anypoint platform ha sido muy satisfactoria, nos recomendaron este software para desarrollar una pequeña aplicacion que necesitabamos en nuestra empresa, y con ella lo hemos conseguido de una manera rapida y sencilla. Como ya estabamos acostumbrados a trabajar con Java no nos ha sido muy complicado utilizar este software, ademas el poder utilizar la base de datos de Oracle, que para nosotros es una de las mas potentes, nos ha facilitado el trabajo.

Puntos a favor:

Lo que mas me ha gustado del software es que el desarrollo de aplicaciones en esta plataforma no nos ha resultado muy complicado de utilizar. Hemos utilizado JAVA y ORACLE como motor de base de datos para el desarrollo de nuestra aplicacion y asi de una manera rapida y sencilla, hemos podido crear una pequeña aplicacion.

Puntos en contra:

Su curva de aprendizaje puede ser un poco lenta si no has trabajado con ECLIPSE, y la atencion al cliente puede ser mejorable.

Puntos a favor:

Me resulto interesante probar esta herramienta para diseñar , implementar automatizar, redes de aplicaciones

Puntos en contra:

Si no tienes ciertos conocimientos de APIs te puede resultar dificil iniciarte en ella.

Best platform for integration

Puntos a favor:

One single platform to handle apis and integrations

Puntos en contra:

It can be quite expensive initially. RAML and studio have to be learned.

Anypoint Platform from Mulesoft is a complete API management tool.

Comentarios: ease of use
cloud support
Java based re-usability
good customer support
Scalability

Puntos a favor:

API Manager - Helps in managing the APIs right from applying in-built policies to creating custom policies. Create proxy on top of your applications seamlessly. In-built load balancer as well as customization option. VPC- Able to create a private network of your applications and allows limited access to some of the applications Runtime Manager - Deploy your applications either on-premise or on cloud. You have option to choose your own environment. Anypoint MQ- Enterprise feature messaging system. Anypoint Studio - Eclipse based IDE where you can design the flows, debug, run them, create unit test cases and also use mocking feature. Anypoint Exchange - It helps sharing your API contracts ( WSDLs, RAML ), APIs, etc easier. Anypoint Connectors - Many in built connectors which help connecting to many systems like SAP, Salesforce, Workday, Twitter, AWS, Mainframe, etc. There is a provision to create custom connector too. It is Java based so we can leverage all the reusable libraries Java has to offer.

Puntos en contra:

Pricing is not very good. Need more features in API manager like payload limiting, debugging is weak, etc.

Does the Job

Puntos a favor:

It does everything we need it to. There is a wealth of features.

Puntos en contra:

The UI can be very buggy at times and hard to use. I get warnings the dont' make sense half the time.

Cloud based integrated platform and middleware solution

Puntos a favor:

1. Mulesoft can be used to provide an integration platform to a large number of systems like Salesforce, ODBC, JDBC, SAP, Mongo DB, etc. 2. A large number of out of box connectors are available in the market place to be used. 3. Ability to write custom connectors to meet the integration needs of the client. 4. Excellent option to develop microservices and real-time integrations

Puntos en contra:

Not as robust in handling large data volumes, Informatica is better in that respect.

Great application programming solution

Comentarios: If you master the environment alos it's an excellent tool

Puntos a favor:

application development solution. the solution allows to design, develop and test applications

Puntos en contra:

Difficulty in mastering the development environment

Anypoint Is A Good Way To Go

Comentarios: As I was implementing for a client, time to implement and getting a system up and running w/o issues and cost were major issues. This product succeeded, and the client is quite pleased.

Puntos a favor:

The ability to load and install for free with some support. The advanced integration and API approach for combining services and other products makes the product extremely useful and quick to test and implement without any financial commitment.

Puntos en contra:

LIke any other free open-software package, when it works, it's fantastic. When it doesn't, or when you are trying to do something that doesn't seem like a common usage, it can seem like you're on your own. It can take a while, solutions can be found, but it can take some time.

Perfect Ipaas

Puntos a favor:

Anypoint platform give great way of develop API for your SI, it gives perfect monitoring tools, easy to use integration. the way they propose to have a 3 layer approach is quite nice to organize your API and have a clean architecture

Puntos en contra:

The main issue is to find good developer to use it, it's difficult to make a developer of classical langage to use the platform, and it's a nightmare to find people who already new the platform

This was the middleware used for a next-gen learning system

Comentarios: This was the reason we could do what we did with real AI, machine learning, and hyper connected api's.

Puntos a favor:

The ESB is the centerpiece of our learning ecosystem. While not having a front end interface and requiring programming (API work), it's been a tremendous efficiency tool for us. If only we used it better!

Puntos en contra:

It's pretty pricey and the service around it is also costly as that is the main upcharge for businesses who don't have a lot of programmers, etc.

ESB for Enterprise Integration

Comentarios: We have developed business solutions for a wholesale site to handle orders and trigger mailers.

Puntos a favor:

The best thing I liked about the software is its ease of use with version 3. Able to develop API solutions very quickly with a RAML file and the cloud hub deployments.

Puntos en contra:

Documentation was missing few details for connectors. Also the limitations with community version was challenging to develop solutions which require transformations.

Anypoint platform

Comentarios: Good

Puntos a favor:

If you want to make your api and the things where api is used this is the best platform

Puntos en contra:

Learning can be bit difficult at the beginning.

I would like to give my review on Anypoint Platform.

Comentarios: There are various of benefits of Anypoint Platform to use in Integrataion project. 1. Integration Platform: Anypoint Platform is a hybrid integration platform provided by MuleSoft which is used to build application network very easily, structurally and smartly with proper and neat documentation. 2. API-Led Connectivity: Anypoint Platform implements API-Led Connectivity approach to make application network Reusable, Loosely Coupled and more Govern. 3. Layered Architecture: Anypoint Platform follows Layered architecture style in the integration based project in which for each external system we create an API on top of it to expose their data. This API is called as System API and this API is not used normally by any user directly.
Then if required, to merge the two or more than two external system together, we again need to create an API on top of them to expose their data together. This API is called as Process API which is more process oriented.
And then finally we come up with Experienced API on top of Process API to expose process oriented data so that the end user could get the data from different external systems. So you can see how Anypoint Platform smartly uses Layered architecture style to build out network applications easily. 4. CloudHub: This is perhaps the most relevant benefits of Anypoint Platform according to me. Anypoint Platform provides various ways to deploy your integration applications and APIs both on Cloud computing environment and On-prem. 5. Open Source: It is an open source integration platform which means to use this technology to integrate or connect any applications we do not need to use any license software. We can download it from the internet all free of cost. It is Awesome!

MuleSoft Mapping with other Middleware Tools

Comentarios: EAIESB is middleware Expertise Company. We have started with SeeBeyond, SRE, ICAN, Java CAPS 5, Oracle Fusion 10G, 11G and 12C, TIBCO 5.X and TIBCO 6.X.
We have considered Mulesoft as an open Source tool (after diminishing of OPEN ESB / Glassfish ESB).
In 2014 /15 we have chosen Mulesoft as our middleware tool in building Smart Cities project (Integration, IOT & Big Data). Considering the cost and features. We could deliver the POC and could not win the project.
Later in 2016, again we started looking into as various customers are looking for migrating existing environment to new product (simple migration (export and import) vs Re-Write) customers started asking for migration path for Mulesoft also.
Mulesoft latest features (API, Microservices, IOT) tools supported in building components helped us to add Mulesoft into our portfolio.
Having experience in migrating code from various technologies we have built best practices in migrating to Mule.
Best benefit we have seen in mule is the ease of building the custom connector for the use cases while migration.
When mapping with other technologies, we see more connectors in mule, but connectors have less features, but it does not limit /stopping migration.
We are happy to talk to the team and provide specific connectors we have built and use cases which demanded us to build them and contribute to the community.
Feel free reaching us vijay.reddy@eaiesb.com

Puntos a favor:

-Connector Development Kit

Puntos en contra:

-Fewer features in connectors but not source stopper

I have been using MuleSoft Anypoint platform at customer places and the experience is getting better

Comentarios: Ease of Integration API Portals and API Gateway

Puntos a favor:

USP is Connectors and how rapidly the flows can be built. I am an admirer of Mule Runtime and the time it takes to start, deploy applications and the number of transactions it can handle with minimum hardware configurations.

Puntos en contra:

Anypoint Studio - There are so many bugs when TransformMessage is used with big XMLs and JSON schemas. Anypoint Runtime Manager: It is very inconsistent in managing the run time without any issues. RAML Editor: It has to improve while showing errors. Flow Analyzer: It is needed in ARM which is available in MMC. Autodiscovering APIs: It is very inconsistent and has to improve MuleSoft need to support Swagger along with RAML to have more options to the developers.

Mulesoft as a middleware

Comentarios: It was a great experience to work using Anypoint Platform. It has both on premise and cloud.

Puntos a favor:

Well versed and configuration and creating iFlow is easy. Interfaces can be designed easily based on RAML and diagram is simple drag and drop.

Puntos en contra:

Main problem about this software is different connector type is there for different protocol except different SAP connector. There is only one connector called SAP. It will be great if there will have different connector like idoc, RFC, proxy etc.

A complete ESB/iPaaS

Comentarios: When we started to develop in MuleSoft, we need change our vision about the integration processes oriented to Web Services. You need to use other concepts and best practices, but they offer a great information about it in his blog.
MuleSoft is a great application like ESB (on-premise and CloudHub). When you have experience with it, develop is fast, controlled and easy.
A great characteristic of it, is the big amount of free connectors that it offers. You can connect with a great number of Internet service providers (through APIs).
The UI in the first steps could be complex, but, for this reason, is a great UI that has controlled all aspects of the development.

Puntos a favor:

Error-handle processing, deep code programming (directly on the XML), Python, Java and other code separated into the transformations, complete IU for developing, connection with versioning solutions

Puntos en contra:

Prcesses monitoring, task schedule

It is a very good tool to build, test and deploy flows to cloud hub

Puntos a favor:

Drag and drop feature makes it very easy to build flows. very short learning curve for anyone with java background. Open source technology makes it easier to customize something which is not provided out of the box.

Puntos en contra:

Adding additional cloud connectors, which are not shipped with along with it are very difficult to install. The documentation provided for any of the component and or connector is not updated.

Anypoint Platform Review!

Puntos a favor:

The freedom and options to connect any system / component using the Anypoint Platform. Can connect flat files and expose them as a Web Service! The system doing a "GET" using web service will never know what kind of language / platform they're dealing with. It's a consistent look and feel of REST and SOAP.

Puntos en contra:

Design tools are in Eclipse and require a slight learning curve if you are new to the environment. Because portions of the product are open sourced, updates require careful regression testing.

This is one the best studio o have ever seen very best in quality and customer support was awesome

Comentarios: Make my code very easy and this design made me fell in love

Puntos a favor:

its graphical UI design which made me love a lot and its options and categorization is very good and the best part of it its free every where available

Puntos en contra:

There is nothing least in it we are expecting some more changes like additional of the maven dependencies being used at best of the times

Anypoint Platform cloudhub UI needs drastic improvement.Anypoint MQ can not be open in IE browser.Pls make it compatiable with IE browser also. Cloudhub logs need to enhance with some new functionalities like archieving.

Easy to use. Documentation for all the connectors are available.

Comentarios: Can easily call web services, database. Can use java/ Groovy or SQL to validate data we are processing.

Puntos a favor:

The Anypoint custom connector feature is good. Wothout writing any code , we can implement Oauth or other authentication. For rest web services RAML feature is gud.

Puntos en contra:

Data Sense won't work for Java transformers or Groovy transformations. Database Metadata won't form if we pass connection values using configuration files.
